Elisabeth VThe train ride was great, however booking with 123go a challenge to avoid all the extras they want to upsell to you. A simple purchase at the train station would have been better.

Philip KI went by train and returned by bus. Train is a great experience and the ticketing and seat reservation worked perfectly. Return bus was late by a half hour and caused me a lot of anxiety but when it came the bus was new and VIP standard. the driver was safe and the drop off smooth. However there is a distinct lack of information at the pickup spot in Hue. there is no signage or dedicated bus stop so if the bus is late the passenger does not know what is happening.

Richard WTourist train between Danang and Hue. Having not been on the Vietnam rail network before it was a very interesting experience throughout. The carriages are old (my seat would only stay in the fully reclined position) but it all just seemed part of the experience as we moved through the hill sides and flat lands between the two cities. There is a lot of development/building work on going around the coastal areas to the North of DaNang which detracts from the scenic views of the coastline in places but there is still enough unspoilt area to enjoy. The train was on time, both for arrival and departure. With it being ‘The Tourist Train’ be aware there will be touts for taxis and lodgings ready to greet you on the platform when getting off the train

These speeds of travel together with relatively short stops between stations can greatly shorten the duration of your trip.

Best-Rated Companies for this Route
Unlike buses or taxis which have numerous companies offering their services, train service is usually offered by just one major company in each country. As railway service requires a large amount of infrastructure, most railway companies are government-owned and are a part of the national transport system.
One of the best advantages of travelling by train is that railway stations are often conveniently located within or very near major cities and urban areas. Immediately on arrival to their destination, travellers find themselves in close proximity to important facilities like hotels, supermarkets, and hospitals.
If you travel with a lot of bags and luggage, trains are your best option. Luggage weight limits on trains are rather flexible and allow you to carry multiple bags with you.
Special or luxury trains feature sufficient legroom which allows you to stretch your legs and relax. In comfort and space these train seats can be compared to business class airplane seats.
Similar to buses, trains can provide a variety of amenities to make your travel more comfortable and enjoyable. Modern trains have WIFI service, a snack counter and a drinking bar. Onboard toilets can be a life saver for travellers with queasy stomachs.
Lastly, unlike buses and other overland means of transport, trains are very rarely involved in accidents.
